Description
Is it a shawl, is it a cowl, is it something else? Yes! And why can it not be both, or more? As many of my students know, I wear a lot of bright Summer colors all year long, life is too short to just wear black! I was given some Cumulus yarn this year which a friend bought on vacation because it made her think of me and my Lilly Pulitzer Collection. Have you tried it yet? You must, it is a lovely Israeli cotton worsted weight yarn available in a wide range of colors and colorways that present as solids, tonals, stripes, all sorts of different combinations of which here is my two tone piece of fiber art just in time for the September yarn crawls.
